The Temple board of trustees didn't vote on accepting a possible future offer to join the Big East during Wednesday's conference call meeting, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.
However, one source said the group did discuss how it would pay any fees needed to exit its present conferences.
Patrick J. O'Connor, chairman of Temple's board of trustees, did not return calls. Bill Bradshaw, the Owls' athletic director, said, "every decision is based on what's best for Temple University and student athletes."
